Photon Voice And Meta Avatars 2

I'm wondering how anyone of you have managed to resolve a conflict between how PhotonVoice and the new Meta Avatars access the microphone. 

 

When the PhotonVoiceNetwork is initialised it will eventually call Microphone.Start() in order to get at the microphone's input. However in doing so it creates a new audio clip which makes the audio clip that the meta avatar's LipSyncInput was dependent on no longer equal to the audio coming through the microphone. If I then call LipSyncInput.StartMicrophone() it will also eventually call Microphone.Start() which creates a new AudioClip making the audio clip that Photon's recorder was dependent on no longer equal to the audio coming through the microphone.

 

In short, I can either get lip syncing using my mic input OR photon using my mic input, but not both at the same time.

Ideally you can pass the audio buffer from your microphone sample to here after playing it to get processed by avatar but it just crashes as the classic behaviour of the meta avatars sdk.
